To understand this period of history, one key figure cannot be bypassed in any case, Edward Astarte. Apart from a pretty face and a eloquent mouth, his father is nothing even among ordinary people. Exceptional, but his mother is very famous in Morsefa in the First Firmament World, because she is the eldest of the famous "Seven Sisters of Astarte", also known as the "Seven Sisters of Fire Hair", Ashtar The special duchess - the seven sisters born from the same mother. All of them are, as their names suggest, formal mages of the fire system. They have a bad temper and willful actions, especially the eldest. She has disappointed countless suitors and ordinary people. When getting married, no one dares to say no.
Even the ordinary man who was unfortunate enough to be chosen as her husband was like this. He could only secretly vent his dissatisfaction, and soon after, this dissatisfaction bore fruit.
The Duchess of Astarte spent her short and glorious life wantonly and disappeared into the sky like a fireball, leaving behind an orphan named Edward. He barely had time to change into his mother's mourning clothes. His father openly brought his stepwife and a brother who was only a few months younger than him before him, and made his years of dissatisfaction public to the world, as if he was not in charge of the Astarte territory and title temporarily on behalf of Edward, but rather like that. The duchess bequeathed him the general.
He and his current wife took it all for granted.
Of course, if the ten-year-old Edward Astarte did not exist... this would be an easy thing to do.
A child of only ten years old! Even if he already has the strength of almost a formal mage, he should be easily killed by dozens of killers hired with money!
And it doesn’t seem to have to be that complicated! They had only entered the Duke's Palace with pride for a long time, and Edward disappeared from the Duke's Palace, as if he had never existed...until someone told them that traces of Edward Astarte appeared in the capital of Morsefa.
What is he doing there? Could it be! Are you going to complain to his relatives?
Although newlyweds who have been together for many years feel that the territory of Astarte has nothing to do with Edward, perhaps those relatives who are officials and kings will be confused for a while! This is not a trivial matter. Even if it is saved in the end, the time, money and connections spent during the process are still a terrible figure!
The informant smiled slightly, as if he had insight into their stupidity: "In one month, the new people will pass the upgrade test and be recognized as official mages in front of the emperor. Once recognized as official mages, not only ordinary people and even untouchables can have complete of nobility, and—"
No matter how young you are, you are an "adult" immediately in civil terms, and you no longer need a "guardian" to "manage" you on your behalf.
When the time comes, he won't need any relatives who are kings to throw a shovel into the dung pile outside the door of the family who just stepped into the Duke's Palace with great pride!
Thinking of this, they no longer hesitated to spend money and spent it as much as they wanted, hiring a large number of thugs. However, there was one thing that made this ordinary couple a little uneasy, that is, they seemed to have hired too many killers. Now that they have become more experienced, many of the high-status guards of the Duke's Palace are not as neatly dressed as they are, and they walk with style.
One month later, during the upgrade test in front of the emperor, no children appeared. The youngest of the thirty-one new official mages that day was seventeen-year-old Jacques, a genius recognized as having a promising future.
It was only a long time later that people learned that that day was the day when Edward entered the Academy of the Dead, surrounded by killers hired by his biological father. When you reach the Skull Bridge, if you look back, you can see the grand fireworks set off by the capital to celebrate the new mages passing the test. Those fireworks illuminate the surface of the Sea of Fertility like flowing gold, making the wealthy people on the sea decorate their homes with gold and silver. The cruise ship surrounded by flowers was overshadowed, and all the princes, nobles and common people who participated in the event were intoxicated. But except for himself, no one knew whether he turned around that day...
Although there is no inscription on the skull gate of the Academy of the Dead that reads "Those who enter this gate give up all hope", but even the kindest and most ignorant people in Morsefa know that entering the Academy of the Dead will most likely become a spellcasting material. .
In fact, they are still too ignorant and kind. In the Academy of the Dead, those who are lucky enough to have intact organs left for others to study are the lucky ones. Most of them can leave a "puddle", which is good.
Therefore, while other colleges charge high tuition fees, Necronomicon College does not even have an entrance exam.
What entrance exam is required! Those who come in are all customers... no, they are all materials that may survive! If you have someone who comes voluntarily, they won't have to come to arrest you. Oh no, they'll have to collect one! To be honest, the reason why the Necromancer Academy has such a bad reputation is not entirely due to the rumors spread by the elemental wizards.
Since there is no entrance exam, no one will investigate the fact that Edward Astarte quietly turned into the ordinary Edmond, a freshman at the Necromancer Academy, without any identification certificate. He was extremely exclusive and did not communicate with the world. He was so tired that his father and his father's new wife spent the next ten years sitting on the territory of Astarte without even a good sleep or a meal. It was delicious, and he was thinking hard every day whether he was dead or alive, whether he should continue to hire killers or stop wasting money - and during this period, Edward Astarte not only completed his studies at the Academy of the Dead, but also participated in Many studies, even the highest level of research in the School of Necromancer, which is the secret that Hualin was ordered to go to the Second Firmament World to explore, artificially increase the chance of a wizard being born.
Edward Astarte, who is less than 20 years old, played a key role in this research. If this is a record of the First Firmament world, then it can be said to be flattery or malicious rumors, but this is the Second Firmament world. The records of the world, so I can only say that it may be the truth.
According to the records of the Second Firmament World, Edward Astarte gained the trust of the top leaders of the Necromancer because of his outstanding performance in this research, and was able to learn about the world crisis in the First Firmament World.
The senior officials also promised him that they would leave him a comfortable place in the new world and let him randomly select dozens of pregnant mothers from among the people controlled by the college.
However, Edward Astarte had his own plans.
